India Lucky Not To Lose More Than Four Rafales

[mythbuster]

I have worked in the Seclin factory of Dassault, but it's quite old now.
Not a rumor. Except may be at the DA board level... but it's not mine.

Didn't know Dasssault has a Sicilian pizza factory.....were you making pineapple pizza there ?

Airforces don't ground a whole fleet of planes for just one day.

In fact it was the time to adapt their strategy.

Yeah got grounded to ‘adapt their strategy’ in the middle of a war, as per your DGMO, any AF that’s not a AF adapts strategy before a war not during. During proves incompetence for which nobody is being held accountable so more and bigger humiliations to come for sure.

It's a bit ridiculous when you were claiming 3 Rafales to suddenly adding a another 2 months later.

No they are claiming 4 kills, IMO there's no point in inflating the numbers.

Sometimes it is not immediately clear if an aircraft was shot down...if it happens in ur enemy's territory.

A circumstantial evidence isn't always good enough to count it as a kill for certain. If the aircraft disappears off the radar...is that enough certainty to count it as shot down? If the radio goes silent and pilot doesn't respond..does that count? What if it was a result of friendly fire by enemy? Not always easy to tell right away.
Short of having the destroyed airframe falling on Pakistan's side...and especially in the fog of war it can take some time before enough evidence can emerge to be able to say with certainty.

That's how any cautious approach would work. You would initially declare the kills that you know about certainly and then change that number if required WHEN new information comes to light.

Impressive! Very Nice, Let's see Rafale's performance in BVR combat involving airborne and ground based sensors in a peer to peer conflict

Well let’s answer that one, 1 Ra-fail confirmed blown to bits by everyone including independent analysts as reported by WP & NYT not to mention the French who said they were investigating ‘if more were lost’ but since then are keeping their head down & hoping the whole thing blows over for obvious reasons. Pakistan claims four smashed and the editor of the world’s leading military aviation magazines believes that number and even says that India was lucky not to lose more. Meanwhile rather than admitting to just 1 if that was the case and since it’s already indisputed apart from by the mentally challenged, India’s response when asked how many Ra-fails they lost is, ‘operation is ongoing’so I can’t tell u & the other gem ‘numbers do not matter, what matters is the reason they were shot down’……now I’ll leave everyone to do their own very easy maths but I bet copers like our resident ‘Frenchie’ will still do 2+2=0 or maybe he’ll accept 1 because it’s so obvious but suggest that maybe it made it back to base to be used for spares

Not only that he repaired the S-400 HIMAD launcher, Sgt. Bhale Singh also immediately repaired the S-400 "96L6E" aka "Cheeseboard Radar" seconds after it got struck by CM-400AKG/AR hypersonic missile fired by JF-17 Thunder Block-II.

Later he repaired, 4x Rafale, 1x Su-30MKI, 1x Mirage-2000H, 1x Mig-29UPG, & 1x Heron MkII, the Rafale airframe serial no. BS-001 took most of the time as its tail section, 2x engines, HUD, fuselage, ejection seat were scattered in a radius of 5-7km, since this Rafale intercepted PL-15 fired from PAF's J-10C.

Now it is 8 ! better and better.

its just a thought..if india thinks they are way lower then they should correct us by saying the actual number...

Ahem ahem.

@Oscar - pretty much confirms the narrative that S400 went offline after PAF strike - allowing PAF jets to operate with much more freedom close to LoC.

Interesting that they were repairing launcher under fire. So first they definitely had damage - then repairing launcher means much more was impacted than just the cheeseboard.

Even if repaired and operational. If it was a complete non factor while PAF aircraft and assets roamed freely over Indian airspace - that is the epitome of SUPPRESSION OF ENEMY AIR DEFENSE.

It suppressed and unable to provide any support against PAF. Jobs done.

still no confirmation over Shivangi ...
